IONIC COMPOUND DISSOCIATE WHEN THEY DISSOLVE IN WATER
   

Explanation

Ionic compounds dissociate when they dissolve in water because water molecules surround the ions and pull them apart, breaking the ionic bonds. This process is known as hydration. The positive ions (cations) are attracted to the negative oxygen atoms in water, while the negative ions (anions) are attracted to the positive hydrogen atoms in water. As a result, the ions become surrounded by water molecules and are able to move freely in the solution, leading to the dissociation of the ionic compound.
